Abstract:
Abstract This article analyzes discomfort about sexuality expressed in formal education. It draws on Foucault’s analysis of sexuality as a privileged object of biopolitics (the object of regulation, surveillance, and discipline) and the most instrumentalized element in power relations in the Western world. Related to this is also the pedagogization of child sexuality, which even today is still characterized by ambiguities and discomfort. The author concludes that silence about non-hetero-sexualities and the biomedicalization and physicalization of (homo)sexuality are the most common and obvious symptoms of discomfort about (homo)sexuality in Slovenian schools. These manners of treating sexuality are usually interpreted as neutral, but the author interprets them as strategies of conflict avoidance which in fact support a heteronormative social order and (implicitly or explicitly) even legitimize the exclusion of all who cross the boundaries of ‘normal heterosexuality’. They strengthen prejudice, motivate ignorance, and can even be used as an excuse for violence. The article points out that education does not provide a magic formula since it cannot foresee its own effects due to the complexity of social relations and the nature of the education process (e.g. Millot, 1983).

Abstract:
The question of homosexuality in Francophone Caribbean literature is often overlooked. However, the ways in which the Haitian René Depestre’s Le mât de cocagne (The Festival of the Greasy Pole, 1979) and “Blues pour une tasse de thé vert” (“Blues for a Cup of Green Tea”), a short story from the collection Eros dans un train chinois (Eros on a Chinese Train, 1990) portray homoeroticism and homosexuality begs further study. In these texts, the study of the violence that surrounds the representation of sexuality reveals the sociopolitical implications of erotic and racial images in a French transatlantic world. Hence, the proposed essay “Man up!” interrogates a (Black) hegemonic masculinity inherited from colonialism and the homophobia it generates. This masculinity prescribes normative traits that frequently appear toxic as it thrives on hypersexuality and brute force. When these two traits become associated with violence and homoeroticism, however, they threaten this very masculinity. Initially, Depestre valorizes “solar eroticism,” a French Caribbean expression of a Black sexuality, free and joyful, and “geolibertinage,” its transnational and global expression. Namely, his novel and short story sing a hegemonic and polyamorous heterosexuality, respectively, in a postcolonial milieu (Haiti) and a diasporic space (Paris). The misadventures of his male characters suggest that eroticism in transatlantic spaces has more to do with Thanatos (death) than Eros (sex). Though Depestre formally explores the construction of the other and the mechanisms of racism and oppression in essays, he also tackles these themes in his fictional work. Applying Caribbean feminist and gendered lenses to his fiction bring to light the intricate bonds between racism, sexism and homophobia. Such a framework reveals the many facets of patriarchy and its mechanism of control.

ABSTRACT By situating the film's tragic representation of homo- sexuality within the tradition of melodrama, this article questions whether Brokeback Mountain truly challenges mainstream taboos. Like Midnight Cowboy, Brokeback Mountain casts its radical subject matter within an ultimately conservative generic paradigm rather than camping it up in the manner of Andy Warhol's Lonesome Cowboys.

Abstract:
En choisissant de travailler sur les représentations de l’homosexualité dans les pays francophones d’Afrique subsaharienne, nous poursuivions trois objectifs à portée de main. S’insurgeant contre le silence de plusieurs universitaires dudit continent à aborder la thématique de l’homosexualité dans leurs travaux scientifiques, faire de celle-ci notre réflexion s’est donc imposé à nous de façon impérative. En effet, notre premier objectif (épistémologique) était de s’intéresser à cette thématique qui demeure encore un champ quasi inexploré et inexploité en littérature en milieux francophones d’Afrique afin de réfléchir sur les problématiques que soulève cette sexualité si prégnante aujourd’hui. En d’autres termes, le désintéressement ou le manque d’intérêt du plus grand nombre a produit en nous un effet sans doute doublé et dont l’aboutissement de ce travail peut prétendre être l’écho. Signalons que si les œuvres de fictions abondent il n’en est pas ainsi des travaux scientifiques sur le sujet. L’autre but visé, cette fois-ci pragmatique, consistait à infirmer l’idée selon laquelle l’homosexualité serait une sexualité exogène à l’Afrique. Une conception qui rend plus mal à l’aise les personnes homosexuelles qui se sentent mises à part à cause de leur sexualité. Comme nous l’avons amplement montré à la lumière des travaux de Charles Gueboguo, l’homosexualité est transculturelle et donc elle a toujours existé au sein de plusieurs peuples africains. En revanche, son questionnement actuel n’est pas celui que connurent les sociétés passées. Les mœurs changent avec le temps, les hommes y compris. C’est donc une conviction pour nous de (re)donner l’estime de soi, la confiance et la considération à ces personnes marginalisées sexuellement et/ou identitairement. Ce faisant, nous avons mis l’accent sur l’acceptation, l’affirmation et la représentation de soi, de son homosexualité. Le dernier objectif est beaucoup plus personnel et il voudrait satisfaire une curiosité intellectuelle. Pourquoi cette sexualité suscite-t-elle autant de débats de nos jours, divise-t-elle des familles ou des foyers dans certains pays, pourtant si insignifiante dans l’Antiquité grecque ? L’homosexualité est-elle seulement un acte sexuel entre deux ou plusieurs personnes de même sexe ou va-t-elle au-delà de la génitalité ? Des interrogations que nos nombreuses lectures et surtout nos analyses ont permis de comprendre autrement qu’avec un regard judicateur ou une attitude intolérante envers les personnes homosexuelles
By choosing to work on representations of homosexuality in French-speaking sub-Saharan African countries, we pursued three goals at our fingertips. Insurgency against the silence of several African scholars to address the theme of homosexuality in their scientific work, to make it our reflection has therefore imposed itself on us imperatively. Indeed, our first objective (epistemological) was to take an interest in this theme, which still remains an almost unexplored and untapped field of literature in French-speaking Africa, in order to reflect on the issues raised by this highly pregnant sexuality today. In other words, the disinterest or the lack of interest of a large number (of scholars) has undoubtedly drove in us an extra motivation whose result of this work can claim to be the echo. It should be noted that while fiction works abound, this is not the case for scientific work on the subject. The other aim, this time pragmatic, was to refute the idea that homosexuality is an exogenous sexuality to Africa. An idea that makes gay people more uncomfortable and feel apart because of their sexuality. As we have amply demonstrated in the light of Charles Guebogo's work, homosexuality is transcultural and therefore it has always existed among many African peoples. However, its current questioning is not that of past societies. Morals change with time, including men. It is therefore a conviction for us to (re)store self-esteem, trust and consideration to those people who are marginalized because of their sexual orientation. In doing so, we have emphasized acceptance, affirmation and self-representation of one's homosexuality. The last goal is much more personal and it aims at satisfying an intellectual curiosity. Why does this sexuality arouse so much debate these days, divide families or homes in some countries, yet so insignificant in Greek antiquity? Is homosexuality only a sexual act between two or more people of the same sex or does it go beyond genitality? Queries that our many readings and above all our analyzes have allowed to understand otherwise than with a look judge or intolerant attitude towards homosexuals

Abstract:
Esta é uma pesquisa antropológica sobre agenciamentos, disputas e segregações socioespaciais entre homens que se autoidentificam como gays ou homossexuais em contextos de periferia das cidades de São Paulo e Belém. Objetivamos perscrutar o processo de produção social das diferenças entre esses homens, frequentadores de bares com expressiva sociabilidade homossexual, localizados em regiões periféricas da zona leste de São Paulo e em um bairro de periferia de Belém: o Guingas Bar (em São Mateus), a Plasticine Party, que acontece quinzenalmente no Luar Rock Bar (em Itaquera), e o bar Refúgio dos Anjos (no Guamá), respectivamente. A chave analítica que nos conduziu à temática e aos espaços mencionados partiu da problemática, ainda pouco explorada na antropologia urbana brasileira, entre periferia e homossexualidade, ou melhor, entre os estudos urbanos e os estudos de gênero e sexualidade. Compreendemos que a partir dos anos 2000 a relação destes campos de conhecimento ganhou fôlego no cenário nacional a partir das pesquisas antropológicas sobre sociabilidade homossexual, porém parte desses esforços se concentraram nas regiões centrais das cidades brasileiras. Mais do que reconhecermos distinções regionais e geográficas, procuramos esquadrinhar narrativas sobre cidade que borram o binômio centro-periferia. Para isso, tomamos como um dos vetores argumentativos a mobilidade, enquanto alusão e/ou prática, mas sobretudo como empoderamento, articulando-o aos marcadores sociais de gênero, sexualidade, classe social, raça/cor e territorialidade, com vistas a observarmos como os interlocutores negociam suas existências no espaço urbano. Nossa empreitada propõe contribuir aos estudos urbanos e aos estudos de gênero e sexualidade seja para fazer conversar periferias e homossexualidades, cidades, produção da diferença e sociabilidades homossexuais, seja para mostrar que as transformações urbanas de cada contexto citadino, relacionadas ao percurso histórico dos bares e ao que denominamos de movimento-ações, são peças-chave para a compreensão de termos como resistência, família, comunidade, amizade, sinalizando, desta feita, que tais compósitos extrapolam os sinônimos da ausência e da precariedade, ao mesmo tempo em que as relações estabelecidas não se bastam pela via do lazer e da diversão. Portanto, ao longo da tese percebemos que tais contextos estão em constantes negociações e disputas interpeladas diretamente pelos modos como as cidades são acessadas e desejadas.
This is an anthropological research on socio-spatial agency, disputes and segregations between men who self-identify themselves as gays or homosexuals in periphery contexts of the cities São Paulo and Belém, Brazil. We aim to examine the social production process of the differences between these men, who are frequenters of bars with expressive homosexual sociability, located in peripheral regions of the east side of São Paulo and in a periphery neighborhood of Belém: the Guingas Bar (in São Mateus), the Plasticine Party, held every two weeks in the Luar Rock Bar (in Itaquera), and the bar Refúgio dos Anjos (in Guamá), respectively. The analytical key that led us to the theme and spaces mentioned came from the problematic, still little explored in Brazilian urban anthropology, between periphery and homosexuality, or rather, between urban studies and the gender and sexuality studies. We understand that from the 2000s the articulation of these fields of knowledge gained ground in the national scenario based on anthropological research on homosexual sociability, but part of these efforts were concentrated in the central regions of Brazilian cities. Rather than recognizing regional and geographical distinctions, we seek to sift through city narratives that blur the downtown-periphery binomial. In order to do this, we take as one of the argumentative vectors the mobility, as allusion and/or practice, but above all as empowerment, articulating it with social markers of gender, sexuality, social class, race/color and territoriality, as a way of observing the management of the interlocutors in the urban space. Our project proposes to contribute to urban studies and the gender and sexuality studies, either to talk about peripheries and homosexuality, cities, the production of difference and homosexual sociabilities, or to show that the urban transformations of each urban context, related to the history of bars and what we call movement-actions, are key pieces for the understanding of terms such as resistance, family, community, friendship, signaling, this time, that such composites extrapolate the synonyms of absence and precariousness, at the same time that established relationships are not enough for the way of leisure and fun. Therefore, throughout the thesis we perceive that such contexts are in constant negotiations and disputes directly questioned by the ways in which the cities are accessed and desired.

Abstract:
Den här uppsatsen undersöker på vilket sätt HBTQ-personer synliggörs och representeras inom religionskunskapsämnet i den svenska grundskolans senare år. Undersökningen baseras på en kvantitativ studie i form av en enkätundersökning som riktar sig dels till elever i högstadiet samt till ämneslärare i grundskolan. I studien deltog 272 elever och 4 lärare, som visar att de flesta elever upplever att frågor och perspektiv som rör HBTQ-personer aldrig eller sällan lyfts inom religionskunskapsämnet. Studien lyfter att frågor som rör könsidentitet och sexualitet sällan diskuteras inom religionsämnet men att dessa frågor snarare diskuteras inom andra ämnen som till exempel biologiämnet. Resultatet av studien lyfter nödvändigheten av att HBTQ-frågor och perspektiv bör genomsyra alla ämnen och religionskunskapsämnet i synnerhet, då nationell såväl som internationell forskning pekar på sambandet mellan ohälsa bland unga HBTQ-personer och osynliggörande inom skolan.

Abstract:
Queer theorists and sociologists have argued that the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) movement further marginalizes some queer individuals in the pursuit of legitimacy from the dominant heterosexist culture. This study uses qualitative content analysis to examine the Web sites of four social movement organizations that claim to work for the LGBT community (Human Rights Campaign, Lambda Legal Defense Fund, National Center for Lesbian Rights, and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force). In this thesis, I argue that these organizations participate in scripting the normative homo ideal while distancing themselves from problematic identities that challenge normative, natural frameworks for understanding identity. In doing so, they further marginalize bisexuals, transgender individuals, and other queers whose identities challenge the idea that core identities are authentic and immutable-denying the existence of some queer realities, reinforcing normative ideas about sex, gender, and sexuality, and reproducing the system of inequality that privileges heterosexuality.

Resumo: A presente tese é um estudo sobre mulheres que se relacionam afetiva e/ou sexualmente com mulheres, realizado a partir da cidade de São Paulo. O foco analítico recai sobre as relações que se estabelecem entre práticas eróticas, identidades, corporalidades e convenções sociais acerca de gênero e sexualidade, enfatizando a intersecção entre diversos eixos de diferenciação social. A pesquisa em campo foi conduzida de modo a obter a maior diversidade possível em termos de classe, geração, "raça"/cor, trajetórias e identidades afetivo-sexuais. Para tanto, realizou-se observação etnográfica no circuito comercial de lazer paulistano freqüentado por essas mulheres e em espaços privativos de sociabilidade, complementada por entrevistas em profundidade. A fim de diversificar os estilos e identidades acessados e evitar a associação de uma "comunidade" a espaços delimitados, realizou-se ainda observação e entrevistas com mulheres integrantes de duas redes: as jovens que se classificam como "minas do rock" e as freqüentadoras de um clube voltado para a prática do BDSM (bondage, disciplina, dominação e submissão, sadismo e masoquismo). Para além do diálogo teórico no interior dos estudos de gênero e sexualidade nas Ciências Sociais, este estudo procura oferecer subsídios para debates sobre as demandas por direitos humanos e por formulação de políticas públicas para sujeitos políticos específicos
Abstract: The present thesis is a study conducted primarily in the city of Sao Paulo and concerns women who have affective and/or sexual relationships with other women. The analytical focus is based on relations between erotic practices, identities, corporalities and social conventions related to gender and sexuality, emphasizing the intersection between several axes of social differentiation. The research was conducted in order to obtain a field as diverse as possible on variables such as class, gender, race/color and sexual-affective trajectories and identities. Aiming to achieve this goal, an ethnographic observation was conducted in the commercial circuit of leisure where these women could be found and also in private spaces of sociability. The ethnographic observation was complemented by indepth interviews. In order to diversify styles and identities accessed, as well as to avoid an association of a "community" linked to delimited spaces, observation and interviews were also done with women identified with two other networks: young women who classify themselves as "minas do rock" (riot grrrls) and women who attend to a BDSM club (bondage, discipline, domination and submission, sadism and masochism). Beyond the theoretical dialogue inside gender and sexuality studies in Social Sciences, this study aims to contribute to debates about human rights and public policies demands for specific political subjects

Tese de Doutoramento em Psicologia Aplicada, Especialidade em Psicologia Clínica, apresentada à Universidade Nova de Lisboa: Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada
A identidade sexual em geral e a identidade homossexual em particular são processos psicológicos, sociais e culturais que se realizam mediante a integração de um conjunto de factores que vão para atém do sexo biológico, nomeadamente a identidade do género, os papéis sexuais sociais e a orientação sexual. Os modelos de identidade homossexual actuais não consideram a diversidade da experiência sexual humana, na medida em que se constituem desde uma perspectiva essencialista e se baseiam na irreversibilidade do processo de incorporação da identidade como um aspecto central do self. Desde uma perspectiva construtivista, advoga-se que a formação da identidade homossexual é um processo interactivo e contínuo entre o indivíduo e o ambiente social. Assim, o objectivo desta investigação é explicar o modo como se procede a esta construção junto de indivíduos que se identificam como homossexuais. Participaram neste estudo 2020 indivíduos distribuídos por três amostras e utilizadores da Internet, que responderam aos instrumentos que se encontravam alojados num site construído para o efeito; a saber: o Questionário Sócio-demográfico, o Questionário de identidade Homossexual (construído e validado no presente trabalho, α= 0.81), a Grelha de Orientação Sexual de Klein (também validada no presente trabalho, α= 0.94) e a Grelha Classificatória dos Papéis Sexuais Sociais. Recorreu-se à Internet por ser um recurso avidamente utilizado pela população homossexual, tendo sido preservados todos os princípios éticos da investigação psicológica tradicional. Os dados obtidos foram tratados de acordo com o procedimento da Análise de Equações Estruturais, o que permitiu a construção de um modelo explicativo da identidade homossexual. O tratamento empírico dos dados demonstrou que a identidade homossexual é assimilada peias medidas de orientação sexual e significativamente influenciada peia gestão da homofobia, experiências de discriminação, trajectória de aceitação, suporte social e experiências significativas. ------ ABSTRACT ------ Sexual Identity in general, and homosexual identity particularity, are psychological, social and cultural processes that take place through the integration of several factors that go beyond the biological! sex, namely gender identity, social sexual roles and sexual orientation. The existent models of homosexual identity do not consider the diversity of the human sexual experience, since they constitute themselves from an essentialist perspective, and are based in the irreversibility of the process of identity incorporation as a central aspect of the self. From a constructivist perspective, we advocate that the homosexual identity formation is an Interactive and continuous process between the individual and the social environment. From the presupposition that sexual identity is a socially constructed phenomenon, the objective of the present investigation is to explain how this formation happens among self identified homosexuals. 2020 individuals, distributed in three samples and that were Internet users participated in the study, responding to the following instruments that were available in a site built for the purpose of this investigation: the Socio-demographic Questionnaire, the Homosexual identity Questionnaire (construed and validated in the present study α=0.81), the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid (also validated in the present study, α= 0.94), and the Classificatory Grid of Sexual Social Roles. The Internet was used because homosexual self identified individuals are avid Internet users, and all ethical principals used in more traditional psychological research were preserved. The obtained data were analyzed using Structural Equations Modelling, which allowed the conceptualization of an explanatory model of homosexual identity. This empirical procedure demonstrated that the homosexual identity is assimilated by measures of sexual orientation, and that is significantly influenced by homophobia management, discriminatory experiences, trajectory of acceptance, social support, and significant experiences.

O presente trabalho tem como principal a reflexão acerca dos diferentes sujeitos femininos trazidos pela poesia de Adrienne Rich. A partir do corpora selecionado da poeta estadunidense, pretende-se refletir sobre o processo de construção da subjetividade e sexualidade desses sujeitos na contemporaneidade em oposição à figura feminina presente no discurso da heteronormatividade hegemônica. Desvinculado das representações sociais que assumem ser o corpo feminino um mero objeto masculino e indo além da noção de que a posse sexual da mulher é fator mantenedor da ordem social, o eu lírico de Rich é então, o sujeito formado pela e na diferença, figura marcada não apenas pelo seu gênero, mas por sua raça, classe, por sua linguagem e representações culturais. Hoje com a multiplicidade de valores, sentidos e representações, o sujeito feminino centralizado e estático perde seu espaço para uma figura contraditória, dinâmica e fragmentada, resultado de suas experiências. Nesta perspectiva, entende-se que os poemas de Rich aqui discutidos constituem um espaço de reflexão sobre o discurso hegemônico e práticas sociais guiadas pela cultura Ocidental. Assim, procura-se aqui articular a fala de autoras como Simone de Beauvoir e Teresa de Lauretis com os poemas de Rich, mostrando que com a crescente discussão de tal construção promove-se não apenas uma nova percepção de mundo, mas uma mudança no quadro de referências e critérios, na avaliação de fenômenos sociais.
This paper aims to reflect on the different female subjects brought by Adrienne Rich’s poetry. From the selected corpora of the American poet, it is intended to think about the process of construction of the subjectivity and sexuality of these subjects in contemporaneity in opposition to the female figure present in the discourse of hegemonic heteronormativity.Dissociated from the social representations that assume to be the female body in a masculine object and going beyond the notion that the sexual possession of the woman is a factor that maintains the social order, Rich's lyrical self is then the subject formed by the difference, not only by its kind, but by its class, language and cultural representations. Today with a multiplicity of values, senses and representations, a centralized and static female subject it is replaced for a contradictory, dynamic and fragmented figure, a subject that it is the result of different experiences. In this perspective, it is understood that Rich’s poetry discusses a space of reflection on the hegemonic discourse and social practices guided by Western culture. Thus, we try to articulate a speech by authors such as Simone de Beauvoir and Teresa de Lauretis with Rich's poems, showing that with a growing discussion of such a construction promotes, not only a new perception of the world, but a change of references and criteriaon the evaluation of social phenomena.

Abstract:
This study aims to analyse how sex and sexuality are presented in the Buddhism and Hinduism chapters of religious studies textbooks for upper secondary school. The chosen textbooks are all linked to the new curriculum Lgr 11 which was implemented in the Swedish school system in the spring of 2012. The textbooks were analysed by using two methods; content analysis and discourse analysis. Content analysis was used to examine with which frequency sexes and sexualities appear in the textbooks, while discourse analysis was used to find what discourses surround the two concepts. The discourse analysis used two theories in order to contextualize the several discourses about sex and sexuality. The two theories were social dominance theory and norm critical theory.   The study shows that men are more frequently mentioned in the textbooks than women, with two exceptions. In the chapter describing Buddhism in one of the textbooks, women are more frequently portrayed in pictures. Women are also more frequently mentioned in the chapter describing Hinduism in another textbook.   In the chapters about Buddhism, men are often described as leaders and are mentioned in connection to education. When women are mentioned, it is often in the role of nuns, who are always described as subordinate to monks. In the chapters about Hinduism, men are often mentioned in connection to education, and are often described as in power and as practitioners of the religion. Women are described as dependent on men and are mentioned in connection to marriage and their husbands. Sexuality is a subject which only one textbook brings up. It defines homosexuality as unacceptable in the Hindu society, but does however point out that it is not illegal. Other than that, the textbooks display a lack of interest in discussing sexualities in patriarchal religions in which heterosexuality is considered a norm. Every example and description the textbooks give about religious life and the different stages humans go through are based on a heteronormativity. The authors always base their examples on heterosexual relationships and heterosexual people. The findings of this study are troubling, particularly as the Nation Agency for Education (Skolverket) has stated that the Swedish upper secondary school must study religion from different perspectives, for example sex and sexuality.

Abstract:
Based on interviews with 30 female readers of BL (Boys’ Love) manga in Taipei, this chapter analyzes the BL scene in Taiwan from the perspective of its social utility as a discursive arena enabling women collectively to think through transforming social ideologies around gender and sexuality. This form of participatory pop culture is most interesting, the author argues, not because of any unilateral subversiveness vis-à-vis culturally dominant understandings of (feminine) gender or (homo)sexuality. Rather, it is important in providing a space for the collective articulation of young women’s in-process thinking on these questions. The chapter also engages with the Japaneseness of the genre as consumed in Taiwan in order to consider the imaginative function that its perceived cultural “otherness” performs.

Abstract:
This book is a counter-history of the emergence of lesbian sexuality in early cinema. Drawing on the critical insights of queer theory and the history of sexuality, it challenges approaches to lesbian representation, initially by reframing the emergence of lesbian figures in cinema in the late 1920s and early 1930s as only the most visible and belated signs of an array of strategies of sexuality. The emergence of lesbian representation and spectatorship in early cinema is not a linear progression and consolidation but rather arises across multiple sites in dispersed forms that are modern and backward-looking, recursive and anachronistic. In this tumultuous period, new but not always coherent sexual knowledges and categories emerge, even as older modalities of homoeroticism persist. The book articulates some of the discursive and institutional processes by which women’s same-sex desires and identities have been reorganized as impossible, marginal or—perhaps not so surprisingly—central to new forms of cinematic representation and spectatorship. Complicating the critical consensus of feminist film theory and history, the book foregrounds the centrality of women’s same-sex desire to historically distinct cinematic discourses of both homo- and heterosexuality. It articulates across its chapters the emergence of lesbian sexuality—and that of its intimate “other,” heterosexuality—as the effect of diverse discursive operations of early cinema, considered as a complex assemblage of film texts, exhibition practices, modes of female spectatorship, and reception.
